Question

Submit now vs later

Can someone tell me how to get rid of the "Submit Now/Later"option on the Change Request wizard? I'm sick of it setting lifecycle states that I don't even want to use...

I'm using Windchill 8.0 M040

Nope

The "Update" wizard also has submit now vs later and then it changes your states regardless of what workflow you have running. This wreaks havoc with ACLs and basically prevents you from using "Under Review" for anything useful.

PTC told me to edit the create.jsp for the offending Object Type and change the following line:-

<jca:wizard helpselectorkey="change_createChangeNotice" buttonlist="&lt;font" color="#ff3300">DefaultWizardButtonsWithSubmitPrompt" formProcessorController="com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.change2.forms.controllers.DefaultChangeTaskFormProcessorController">

To:-

<jca:wizard helpselectorkey="change_createChangeNotice" buttonlist="&lt;font" color="#ff3300">DefaultWizardButtons" formProcessorController="com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.change2.forms.controllers.DefaultChangeTaskFormProcessorController">

Clear the Tomcat cache, restart services.

HOWEVER:-

Some usersstill get the Submit Now /Later dialog. (NB I cannot replicate with wcadmin)

I have just sent PTC the latest evidence of this, as they didnt believe me ! If I get a fix from them, I will post it.

Maybe its a browser/PC cache issue....

I would value any input thanks,

Too bad we cannot switch :we lost thisdialog moving to 9.1 M060,and we miss it due to thedesigne of our workflow. So PTC told us the exact contrary , set the buttonList to DefaultWizardButtonsWithSubmitPrompt.However we found out that it was already set at that value, and still the dialog is not shown !

I do not what's going on there ...
